8:38 am
>> definitely should put one in. it would be perfect. we could come hang out at the lake and hang out with your dog at the sate time. the planning commission has now decided to be one or two or possibly no dog parks added to the city of oakland. all right, a lot of options to consider. we want to check in with sal. who's looking at a lot of situations with traffic. a lot of things to follow. >> sal, just thanks for joining us. any time. >> you had to go and dig stuff up. >> right, we were talking about the desk about one of the shots we're going to show you and whether or not it's going to be there. but we decided that it's going to be there. let's look at 101 in san francisco. the accident in octavia and oak is affecting a little bit. if you are driving to downtown and you're not getting on to the central freeway. you should be okay. but avoid the area of octavia
8:39 am
and oak. we're looking at bay bridge, that traffic is light, it's improved quite a bit. so happy to say that things were much worse but now they are better. this is the shot we're talking about, one of our photographers showing us a live look here at the sink hole that they're working on on highway 87 near west virginia near the alma exit. the engineers are standing around looking at it and trying to access how they're going to fix it. but you can see the road has sunken in quite a bit. a couple of lanes of 87 are closed. this is not a huge problem for the morning commute, but if this is somehow out there this afternoon or this evening it's going to be a big problem. so 87 northbound which is the way most people are going has not been affected. meanwhile, some people have been using other highways like 280 and 85 and those have been extra crowded. - >> let's go to steve. >> thank you. and if you're looking out the window you might say, where am
